Couple, Army and IAF officers, die by suicide 240 km apart: ‘Cremate us together’

An Indian Air Force Flight Lieutenant allegedly died by suicide in Agra. Unable to bear the shock, his Army officer wife also took her own life by hanging herself inside a guest house at the Delhi Cantonment.
Police have recovered the woman’s suicide note in which she requested to be “cremated together, hand-in-hand” with her husband, Deendayal Deep.
While Deep, a resident of Bihar, was posted at the Air Force Station in Agra, his wife, Renu Tanwar lived at the Garouta Officers Guest House in Delhi Cantonment. The couple had a love marriage in 2022.
The Delhi Police received information of the incident only on Wednesday. According to information, Deep took the drastic step on Monday night, and Renu followed a day later.
Police found Renu’s body hanging from a fan inside the guest house on Tuesday night.
The reason for Deep killing himself is yet to be determined.
